Official 2011-2012 Playoff thread

When you realize that guys who came in the same draft as AI like Nash and Kobe are playing at a high level in the league, you realize that AI still has got some mileage left in him. Derek is still playing, Jermaine is contributing..goddamnit Grant Hill from 2 drafts earlier is playing and he's got effed up ankles.

You gotta remember that Kobe came out of HS and was 18 at the time; plus he barely played his first two years in the NBA, so he really be compared to guys in the same class as him mileage wise.


THABEET!!!!!

Hmmmm....... I thought this was the Playoffs thread!? Didn't think Thabeet made the playoffs!? :P
 
Is there any games tomorrow? It says Celtics Sixers is on Saturday in America and that's Sunday AUS time. Just seems strange that we will have a day with no games on!

Because of both Western Conference series only going 4 and 5 games respectively, so now there is a game on Sunday Celtics-Sixers (Aussie time) and Game 1 of Spurs-OKC on Monday (Aussie Time). Expecting both games to be pretty darn good.
 
Harsha, this is the playoff thread!! Not the general bball discussion thread!

Yeh i know, just put the news so everyone can catch up to the latest news, the other thread hasn't been used in a long time.......

And if you complaining about the Thabeet thing that was just a joke....
 
Without Bosh, Boston are dangerous.
Maybe if Juwan has a word to Kev before the game, they can come to an arrangement.
 
I was hoping 76ers would make it then beat Miami.

Then it would have been a mirror image of the NHL west conference where the 8th seed has made the NHL final.
 
The conference finals are going to be awesome, can't wait!!

I really think the winner of Boston and Miami will come to if Bosh plays. If he does him and KG will be in a battle but with Bosh playing with James and Wade, he would beat KG. If Bosh doesn't play, KG will have his way with the Miami bigs unless LBJ plays at the 4. And Bass could play at the 4 for Boston as well, so it's an interesting situation. And Coach Spo said that is Bosh doesn't play, the effort from James and Wade in the last few games of the Pacers series would be the normal effort he wants! And I think Ray Allen is the wild card, he was OFF during the Philly series so if he can catch fire, watch out!

In the west I think the Point Guard match up is key. Parker V Westbrook. Both players like to get to the paint so it depends on which guard will be able to stop the other! Who thinks Danny Green will guard Durant? He's a great defender but might be a bit too small for KD. Duncan V Ibaka will also be an awesome match up.
